Box 1388 Lumberton, North Carolina 28359 Subject: Renewal NPDES Permit NC0024571 Lumberton WWTP Robeson County Dear Mr. Walters: Division personnel have reviewed and approved your application for renewal of the subject permit. Accordingly, we are forwarding the attached NPDES discharge permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended). This permit renewal has the following differences from your current permit: • Monitoring requirements and the limit for cyanide in Special Condition A.(1) were removed, as there is no Reasonable Potential to exceed Water Quality Standards for cyanide. ➢ A new limit of 12.0 ng/ L for mercury, monthly average, has been added to this permit as a result of Reasonable Potential evaluation. The daily maximum limit is 36 ng/ L. Sample frequency has been changed to monthly for mercury per our permitting strategy for metals and toxicants. This facility discharges to the Lumber River, which has been specifically identified on the 303(d) list for mercury -impaired fish tissue. If the facility reports mercury values below 12 ng/ L for one year (12 data points), the facility may request a reduction in monitoring frequency to quarterly. This change will be considered to be a minor modification to the permit, and will not require public notice. ➢ The Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) footnote has been changed to agree with our permitting strategy for TRC. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Location: 512 N.

CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QUARTERLY) The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia dubia at an effluent concentration of 21 %. The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, Quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" or subsequent versions. The tests will be performed during the months of February, May, August and November. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes. If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes, and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form (MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed. If reporting pass/fail results using the parameter code TGP3B, DWQ Form AT-1 (original) is sent to the below address. If reporting Chronic Value results using the parameter code THP3B, DWQ Form AT-3 (original) is to be sent to the following address: Attention: NC DENR / DWQ / Environmental Sciences Section 1621 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1621 Completed Aquatic Toxicity Test Forms shall be filed with the Environmental Sciences Section no later than 30 days after the end of the reporting period for which the report is made. Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all concentration/response data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature. Total residual chlorine of the effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream. Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Section at the address cited above. Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be required during the following month. Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring requirements or limits. If the Permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently then required by this permit, the results of such monitoring shall be included in the calculation & reporting of the data submitted on the DMR & all AT Forms submitted.

The facility discharges to subbasin 030751, HUC 0304020310 in the Lumber River, classified C Sw waters. The receiving stream is listed on the 2010 303(d) list as impaired for mercury based on fish consumption. DMR Data (2008-2010) DMR data from January 2008 through July 2010 were reviewed. Data for conventional arameters are summarized in Table 1 Flow Temperature (MGD) (°C) Dissolved BOD TSS (mg/L) Fecal Oxygen (mg/L) (#/100 mL) Average 6.48 A 8.39 2.79 9.1 17.3 19.99 Maximum 16.82 28.8 11.75 8.90 49.8 440.0 Minimum 3.23 10.0 5.1 2.00 1.5 1.0 Table 1. NC0024571 Conventional Data (January 2008-July 2010) This facility also collects data for total nitrogen, total phosphorus, and ammonia nitrogen (NH3- N). It consistently meets its ammonia limits of 4.0 mg/L (summer) and 8.0 mg/L (winter). Total Nitrogen levels average 10.0 mg/L and Total Phosphorous averages 0.89 mg/L. A review of the metals (from both the DMRs and Pretreatment data) and toxicants was also performed. With the exception of total residual chlorine (TRC), these are discussed in the Reasonable Potential Analysis section. TRC levels from January 2008-July 2010 averaged 1.5 µme• Fact Sheet NPDES NC0024571 Renewal Page 1 Correspondence Files/Compliance (2008-2010) The Fayetteville Regional Office (FRO) conducted several site visits during this permit term to evaluate compliance. The facility has demonstrated consistent compliance in meeting its permit limits and has received no NOD's/NOV's in the past two years. Instream Monitoring The facility does instream monitoring for temperature and dissolved oxygen. As the receiving waters are classified C Sw, the natural conditions sometimes include low DO. The upstream DO was higher than the downstream DO 66% of the time, and lower 34% of the samples. Only one data point showed more than 10% difference between up and downstream (11% difference). Toxicity Testing Current requirement: Chronic P/F @ 21%. No changes recommended. The facility has been in compliance with its toxicity limit. PERMITTING STRATEGY Waste Load Allocation (WLA) The Division prepared the last WLA in 1993. The previous and current effluent limits were based on guidelines and water quality standards. The Division has judged previous parameters and limits to be appropriate for renewal with some exceptions. Changes to toxicant monitoring are discussed in the Reasonable Potential Analysis section. Reasonable Potential Analysis (RPA) The Division conducted EPA -recommended analyses to determine the reasonable potential for toxicants to be discharged by this facility, based on DMR and pretreatment data from January 2008-July 2010. Calculations included parameters listed in the previous permit and pre-treatment documents to include: arsenic, cadmium, copper, cyanide, chromium, lead, mercury, nickel, selenium, silver, and zinc. Cadmium, arsenic, lead, chromium, nickel, and selenium; currently monitored through the Pretreatment Long Term Management Plan (LTMP), showed no reasonable potential to exceed water quality standards. These will continue to be monitored through the LTMP. Copper, silver, and zinc were predicted at concentrations higher than the allowable; however these three are action level parameters and limits are not commonly given unless they are triggered under the Action Level Policy. These will remain in the permit as monitored (but not limited) parameters. Cyanide does not show reasonable potential based upon DMR data. Therefore, limits/monitoring for cyanide will be removed from the permit based on our new permitting strategy. Mercury does have reasonable potential based upon DMR data. In keeping with EPA guidance, the receiving water is assumed to have no assimilative capacity since it is impaired for mercury through fish consumption advisories. An end of pipe limit of 12.0 ng/ L will be added to the permit without any dilution as a monthly average. A daily maximum limit of 36 ng/ L will be added. A mercury monitoring special condition (A. (3.) has been added to the permit to allow reducing mercury monitoring frequency from monthly to quarterly if the facility produces 12 consecutive monthly mercury tests below 12 ng/ L. This will be considered to be a Minor Modification, not requiring public notice.

Describe receiving stream features and the pertinent downstream uses: The discharge from the Lumberton wastewater treatment facility flows to the Lumber River, at a point with a 7Q10 of 120 cfs flow (as according to the Whole Effluent Toxicity Testing Self -Monitoring Summary --- see attachment). It is classified as Class C — Sw waters. PART II - DISCRIPTION OF WASTES AND TREATMENT WORKS Volume of wastewater to be permitted: (Ultimate Design Capacity) b. What is the current permitted capacity of the Wastewater Treatment facility? 20.0 MGD 20.0 MGD Actual treatment capacity of the current facility (current design capacity)? 20.0 MGD d. Please provide a description of the existing or substantially constructed wastewater treatment facility: Raw wastewater entered the WWTP through an influent pump unit (with a screw pump, two Flygt VFD pumps, and one immersible pump), then flowed through two mechanical bar screens, then through a grit removal system. The wastewater flow was then metered as it flowed through two Parshall flumes with ultrasonic flow meters. Flow then traveled through a junction box, then through two splitter boxes, and to four aeration basins with aerators (in an extended aeration mode of operation). The flow then passed through five secondary clarifiers, and on to chlorination in a dual chlorine contact chamber, then to dechlorination with sulfur dioxide in a flash mixer. The treated wastewater then flowed to the Lumber River (which was classified as C-Sw). The Tertiary Filters were off-line, and there were no plans in the future for putting them back on-line. Waste Activated Sludge was handled by three aerobic digesters, then transferred to two holding tanks, the sludge was land applied by Synagro Permit Number WQ0000672, (with 56 application fields). The Tertiary Filters appeared to have been designed too small for the WWTP, and they have been off line for several years. Presently, there were not any plans for putting the Tertiary Filters back on line. Also, Aeration Basin #2 and Clarifier #3 were operational but were off-line for the purpose of saving energy costs. Waste Management disposed of the removed bar screen material and grit material at the Robeson County Landfill in St. Pauls. e. Possible toxic impacts to the surface waters: 2.

The applicant is not requesting modification of the facility or increasing flow at this time. 2. A review of the compliance data did not reveal any significant violations. 3. Based upon the previous Compliance Biomonitoring Inspection (see attachment) that was conducted on October 20, 2008, all units were in service, except the Tertiary Filters (which had been off-line for years), and Aeration Basin #2 and Clarifier #3 were off-line in order to save energy costs. This facility continues to maintain a high standard for wastewater treatment. 4. This Office recommends continuation of the Special Conditions for Whole Effluent Toxicity monitoring and Pretreatment Programs. 5. Based upon the above information, this Office recommends reissuance of the said permit for the continued operation of an existing 20.0 MGD wastewater treatment facility consisting of an influent pump station (with a screw pump, two Flygt VFD pumps, and one immersible pump), mechanical bar screens, grit chamber and grit removal, two influent Parshall Flumes with ultrasonic flow meters, four aeration basins, five secondary clarifiers, tertiary filters (supplementary treatment), chlorine contact chambers, sulfur dioxide dechlorination, three aerobic sludge digestors and two sludge holding tanks that are located at the City of Lumberton's wastewater treatment plant at 700 Lafayette Street, south of Lumberton in Robeson County.

The solids are wasted from clarifiers 1,2,3,4 and 5 to the designated digesters. The solids are aerated and thickened in the digesters to 3.5% to 5% solids concentration. The solids are analyzed prior to land application to permit guideline 40 CFR. PART 503.32 (B) SITE RESTRICTIONS AND 40 CFR. 503.33 VECTOR REQUIREMENTS FOR CLASS B SLUDGE and EPA.503 regulations for nutrients, metals content, vector attraction and pathogens. All samples are collected prior to haul event by sludge hauling contractor (Synagro Residual Management Co.). The solids are then transferred to holding tanks 1 and 2 prior to designated haul date. The solids are aerated and transferred continually to holding tanks 1 and/or2 and are pumped from the designated haul pump station at holding tanks land/or 2. Synagro staff use existing instrumentation to control pumps at designated haul pump station to load tankers prior to land application to fields. The residual solids management program proposes that residual solids from the Lumberton Wastewater Plant (WWTP) be applied to the proposed fields as an agricultural resource at agronomic rates. The residual solids will be applied to row crops and hay or pasture land at agronomic rates for total or partial replacement of conventional Nitrogen and Phosphorous fertilizers. The actual amount of residual solids applied will be dependent upon the nutrient requirement of the specific crop and nutrient content of the residual solids. Residual solids application scheduling will be dependent upon residual solids production, storage at the respective treatment plant and crop management program. On farms utilized for hay and pasture production residual solids will be applied in split applications as is normally done when conventional fertilizers are applied to hay and pasture land. These applications will correspond to grass growth in the spring after each cutting in the growing season, and when ever appropriate. On farms utilized for row crops, and residual solids will be applied between crop rotations. The fields will receive residual solids in an agronomic manner based on requirements listed in Permit Number WQ000672. Residual solids will be applied at agronomic rates, which are limited by nitrogen loading rates. Soil pH will be adjusted immediately or during residual solids application to 6.0. Prior to an application event, an application rate will be determined based on a current nutrient analysis. Representative residual solids samples will be collected prior to the haul period and composite done for analysis. 700.2a[a r.ttc cSEzcEt •O. 23ox 1388 , .L'umJEzton, Jo7I eazolina 28359 s 910-671-3859 • 7ax 910-737-3965 q L*SCE£: ararcaci.(unigs2ion.nc.us Jan 29 09 02:48p Jon Locklear t • 910-737-3965 p.5 This composite sample will then be delivered to a certified laboratory and analyzed for Ammonia Nitrogen, NitratelNitrite, % Total Solids, Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen, Phosphorous, Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium, Copper, Zinc, Cadmium, Chromium, Nickel, Lead, Aluminum, Chlorides, Sulfate, Mercury, Arsenic, Selenium, Molybdenum and pH. Plant Available nitrogen (PAN) will be calculated from this residual solids analysis. This information will be used to calculate the loading rate for the field and crop. Once the appropriate rate has been calculated, the residual solids will be removed from the respective treatment plant and transported to the site in trucks or tankers adapted for dewatered or liquid residuals solids. For liquids solids, the residuals will be loaded into 6,500 to 8,500 gallon tankers converted to haul liquid residual solids. The tankers will then travel major traffic routes to the fields wherever possible. Once at the field the tanker will proceed to a designated staging area. The residual solids will then be transferred to liquid residuals solid applicator designed and operated to obtain an even application consistent with agricultural requirements. Synagro contracts with the city for residual removal, hauling, and land application. Which utilizes a tractor and pulled tanker (honey wagon) to apply the residual solids. All residuals solids will be removed from staging area by the end of the day, unless equipment breakdown or weather prohibits the residual solids application. At the start of each day, the field superintendent will inspect all field sites. Equipment will only enter a field when conditions are appropriate for the application. Residual solids will only be applied when the field is capable of supporting equipment without extensive nutting. When field conditions are not appropriate for an application, such as during wet periods, the residual solids will remain at the WWTP until field conditions are suitable for application. Prior to the residual solids operations, the field superintendent and appropriate City of Lumberton personnel will inspect the site. During field inspection, the field Superintendent will note the standard DEM buffer zones including: homes, drainage ditches, roads, wells, surface water, and property boundaries (listed in table 1 on next page). On the basis of these standard DEM buffers for land treatment programs, buffers will be established in the field. These buffers will be identified in the field by the placement of pin flags.
